I always get excited when I get the chance to review educational items. As a former preschool teacher I had lots of fun watching this interactive video of Rachel and treeschoolers - characters like Abacus Finch, Isaac Newt, and others.
Rachel and the TreeSchoolers is a 2 Disc Combo set. One DVD with songs, sign language, fun games and activities. All these activities are incorporated in to make learning fun and attractive for preschoolers. And one CD with the songs in the DVD plus sing along soundtracks.
Episode 1: A Rainy Day
Rain
interrupts the TreeSchooler’s plans to play outside. The lightning and
thunder scare Abacus Finch. Help Rachel and the TreeSchoolers show
Abacus that understanding something can make it less scary. This episode
teaches weather concepts, problem solving, rhyming, sign language,
classification, storytelling, persistence, kindness, and courage.
Rachel has a very beautiful singing voice, a very unique way of introducing children to new weather terms using the sorting game, rhyming and sign language. The songs are fantastic, from the moment I listened to them I couldn't take them off my mind.
The only concern I have regarding this DVD lesson has to do with Chroma
Chameleon which appears for a few second in the video, seems to me that it brings mysticism/ transcendental elements to it. Other then that is a very good product and very professionally done. Preschoolers would love it!
